[needs-packaging] powerfolder

Sourceforge states: License: Other/Proprietary License (http://sourceforge.net/projects/powerfolder- )
And the downloads section only contains a .jar (probably java bytecode) and a windows installer.

PowerFolder is a Internet file synchronization tool.
It is nominated 'Project of the Month' of June 2008 on SourceForge.net
It is a cross-platform application written in Java.

Source code is here: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/powerfolder-/PowerFolder_3_0_X_source_code.zip?modtime=1212873626&big_mirror=0

I am glad to see that the source code link above works, because sourceforge no longer lists any source for the project. All I was able to find was the svn trunk, listed from here: http://www.powerfolder.com/about_us.html (click on "Access to the java source code repository")

It looks like this is closed source now

The source appears to be in a git repository now.

I reviewed two recently modified source files and their headers also stated GLPv2.
